By Damon Runyon. EW YORK, April 15.—In a way It was a broken promise that put Davy Robertson out of the big league—a promise broken before, and not after he came to the New York Giants, heralded ns a phenome nal left-handed pitcher. It is said that he agreed in writing not to play another game of foot ball aft°r signing a Giant contract, and then he played a fatal "one game more." So Davy has gone to Mo bile, down in the Southern Associa tion. lo try to make a first baseman's arm out of the once lusty left wing that might have made him the great est southpaw of the decade. This it' the story of .Davy Robert son. He was a collegian down in the Carolinas a couple jf years ago when he signed, as a pitcher with the Eliz abeth team of the outlaw Tidewater League, which has long since passed to that bourne so heavily populated by firecracker leagues. His record with the bandits wap such as to at tract the attention of big league scouts, and there were half a dozen on his trail when McGraw’s agen slipped in with a contract so alluring that Davy could not resist. He was then under age, and his fattier is said to have signed the con tract with him. It was agreed tha Davy should finish hip college course and report to the Giants in mid season. McGraw knew that the bo' had a big reputation as a oolleg> football player, and -It is said tha the contract specified that Dav should not engage in another grid iron grapple, the Giant chief fear ing that he might be injured. Young Robertson very cheerfully subscribed to this clause. Demand on Gridiron. Then there came on a big class day game, and the left hander’s serv ices were demanded. He played. In that one last game he sustained an Injury to his shoulder—a displaced ligament, or some other apparently trivial hurt that manifested Itself the moment he tried to throw a baseball. When he came to the Giants early last summer he told McGraw of the Injury, and the Giant manager warned him not to take any chances with the bad shoulder, but to go along slowly until the soreness wore away. It was not believed that the injury would prove serious, but as time went on and Robertson still complained McGraw became some what alarmed. Davy is a physical wonder, with the ideal buiid for a pitcher. He handled himself like a natural born ball player; he was wonderfully fast, and could hit the ball, so McGraw began giving him a little work around first base and in the outfield. There was always in the manager’s mind, however, the hope that Davy’s pitch- inf prowess would return. He kept the boy all last year; he got a small part of the world's series money, and this spring he was sent to Marlin early. For a time it seemed that the boy's shoulder had improved, and that he would again be able to pitch, but when Wilbert Robinson, the catcher coach, took him in hand and began working him as a pitcher the Injury again manifested itself so strongly that Robertson was quickly shunted back to first base and went out with the second team playing that position. Big Salary For Youngster. When he was first signed by the Giants his services were so greatly in demand that it is believed he got a big salary for a youngster. With Rube Mnrquard a hold-out this spring it was a wonderful opportunity for the boy as a pitcher, but the last game of football apparently did for him as a big league heaver. Robertson is a very bright young fellow, and he has made a close study of his own case. He believes that he can repair the damage by having his shoulder re-broken. Meantime, how ever, he will take a course in first basing firm Mike Finn, as It seems that Mike’s young marvel. Eugene Pauret, whom lie sent to McGraw a year or so ago off the corner lots of Little Rock, only to receive him back, lias blown up. It is not unlikely that McGraw has a string on young Robertson, and it is not unlikely that the boy wilt prove a wonderful first baseman, but that one game of football was cer tainly a costly affair to him.

Frank Callaway, Charles Nunnally and Gus R.van, the directors of the Atlanta Baseball Association. These three men were chosen from all Atlanta to take charge of the Atlanta Baseball Association partly, of course, because they were men of good business Judgment and real ex ecutive ability, but chiefly because they were superlatively good fans. These men, therefore, should be in the best position of all to judge the contest and to select from the hun dreds of stories submitted the nine best ones—and of tfie nine the very best of all. And right here and now attention is called to the fact that this is tile last chance to get in the contest. It end? to-morrow. April lfi, at mid night, Stories which are to be in the competition must be in The Georgian office or must be in the postoffice and dulj postmarked before midnight of April 16. There is not much time left. So it is safest to sit down now and WRITE YOUR STORY. Think of the possibilities. For less than a half-hour’s work you can have free tickets to all the remaining ball games. The ticket books will be dis tributed before the team returns from its Nashville trip and the winners will have free admissions from April 23 until the season s end. A careful study of the stories al ready submitted demonstrates that, although some excellent ones have been turned in, there is still a chance for 3II. None of the stories turned in yet are so superlatively good that any ordinary writer or any enthusi astic fan could not beat them. And as there are nine prizes everyone who can write oven a half-decent story has a chance. But get yours in NOW. You will be sore at yourself if you put it off until too late and then find to your regret that the prize-winning stories were vastly worse than you could haye done. ATLANTA BASE BALL ASSN.
